Paper Clutter Cleanse

Office Organizing
Written By Monica Friel

Does paper clutter drive you crazy? Do you have an easy way to manage papers at home? Here are some quick fixes:

Mail Flow

  • Eliminate junk mail before it hits the desk/counter.

  • Have a designated spot/inbox for incoming mail.

  • Put parameters on how long you'll keep magazines, catalogs, etc...

Tax Documents

  • Now is the time to gather all tax-related papers into a file (and create a new one for 2023).

  • Keep the file handy and place anything tax related/deductible into the folder.

Kid Papers/Art

  • Keep a file for each child every school year. Edit when the school year ends.

  • Take photos of artwork and create a book.

  • If you keep it all, special items will get lost--pare down frequently.

Receipts

  • Pitch most--keep only what you need for tax purposes or warrantees.

  • Have an easy place to stash the receipts you need or take a pic--digital is best!
